On November 3, GLAAD launched “ASOS x glaad&,” a retail collaboration\u00a0with online fashion retailer, ASOS<\/a>, in support of the\u00a0Together Movement<\/a>, lead by GLAAD. The collection is comprised of clothing and accessory pieces featuring the “&” symbol. The “&” symbol represents the power of all our voices, together, resisting discrimination and hate. Proudly wearing the ampersand is one way for people\u00a0to unite in accelerating\u00a0acceptance.<\/p>\n

This collaboration is a way\u00a0to embody an important message of solidarity for all marginalized communities subject to discrimination.\u00a0A portion of the proceeds from each sale will be donated directly towards GLAAD,\u00a0so be sure to take a look at some of the items below and\u00a0shop the full collection\u00a0<\/a>over at asos.com.<\/a><\/p>\n

The Together Movement is a call<\/a> for members of all marginalized communities to stand together and resist the forces that seek to divide them. The ampersand or “&”, which represents the movement, symbolizes that nobody is just one identity, and all marginalized people, especially those with intersecting identities,\u00a0are more powerful when they work together.\u00a0ASOS has long been committed to “Fashion with Integrity,<\/a>” promoting sustainability within the fashion industry. GLAAD, the world’s leading LGBTQ media advocacy organization, re-writes the script for LGBTQ+ acceptance since its founding in 1985.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
